1.      Need of tanning lotions and their importance
People frequently ask that why they need tanning lotions? Tanning lotions either indoor or outdoor - are great moisturizers. You can never have best tanning session if your skin is dry and rough. Your skin must be healthy and hydrated for getting best tanning results. Moreover, following points are also important in this context:
1.      Indoor tanning lotions are great moisturizer. They hydrate your skin and it helps in increasing the intensity of tanning.
2.      More the hydrated skin, long lasting the effect will be. Always use a standard indoor tanning lotion for darker skin.
3.      Indoor tanning lotions not only tan your skin but nourish your skin too. This results in more healthier and attractive skin.
2.      Need of indoor or outdoor tanning lotion in a tanning bed
Direct exposure to sunlight will lead your skin to become dry and rough. Here the tanning lotions provide moisture, hydration, nutrition and give your skin an attractive look. Indoor tanning lotions also allow UV-rays to penetrate your skin in greater amount and give you better tanning effect in shorter duration of tome.
3.      Tanning and moisturizing – what’s the relation
Tanning and moisturizing a skin – a direct relation. Tanning effects are best when moisturizing of skin is optimal! It means that more the hydrated skin, greater the tanning effects – like intensified tanning results, darker skin and long lasting tanning can be achieved. When you moisturize your skin, UV rays can penetrate in your skin more easily. Rough, dry and poor skin leads to poor tanning effects. Moreover, when your skin is dry, the product doesn’t adhere to your skin properly. It is just the wasting of time and money then.
People frequently ask us that either they can use some other lotions in tanning beds? They might have cost or expense issues in their mind. We will simply say –No here! Indoor tanning lotions are formulated to give your skin nourishment, moisture and soft look. You can never compare an average scented body lotion with standard indoor lotion, especially during tanning sessions.

















 4.      Hot actions – what to know
According to a very authentic source “Hot Action, also known as Tropical Heat, Skin Stimulation, and Tingles, increase microcirculation by causing the blood vessels in the skin to open, which increases blood flow.” It means your micro vessels in your skin will be opened and there will be increased blood flow throughout the body.
This effect is usually achieved when you stay in sunlight for some longer time, do some exercise or use some tanning lotions. There is simply redness and heat production from your skin then – and you get tan complexion in some days.
5.      What are bronzers, melanin and Dihydroxyacetone?
  •   Bronzer is a self tanner product that contains different ingredients that helps in quick and temporary tanning. The main ingredient in DHA (Dihydroxyacetone).
  •   DHA reacts with the dead cells of epidermis and result in reddish – brown appearance of skin.
  •   Melanin is a hormone that is associated with the color of body – more melanin production means more darker complexion of an individual would be.
So, these were some very important facts you must know. Always use standard tanning products and enjoy healthy skin!
